Fig. 1. Anthropogenic perturbation (Δ) of the marine nitrogen cycle by 2081–2100.

Fig. 1

Change is relative to the preindustrial control simulation. Top row shows major sources: a nitrogen deposition; b nitrogen fixation. Upper middle row shows internal cycling: c net primary production; d zooplankton grazing. Lower middle row shows major sinks: e water column denitrification; f sedimentary denitrification. Burial of nitrogen in sediments is not shown. Globally integrated changes are shown above each panel. Note the different scale for internal cycling. g Change in global nitrogen budget (sources minus sinks) due to anthropogenic drivers.
